Abstract

There are provided a metal electrode material used in contact with electrolyte such as in a battery and a capacitor, and a valve-acting metal used as a material of capacitors and capable of reducing the internal resistance of capacitors. The metal electrode material comprises a valve-acting material and a lot of carbon particles on the surface of the valve-acting material. The carbon particles are exposed and fixedly attached to the surface. When the metal electrode material is coated with an activated carbon layer and used for the double-layer electrode of an electric double layer capacitor, carbon particles on the surface ensure electrical conduction between the activated carbon layer and the valve- acting metal. Surface corrosion of the valve-acting metal may not reduce the internal resistance of the electrodes, but reduce the internal resistance of the capacitor, resulting in an increase in capacitance.

Description

Personal information security device and method {PRESERVATION APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PERSONAL INFORMATION}

The present invention relates to a personal information security technology, in particular, when using various services provided through the Internet, so as not to forget or leak the user ID and password set for managing the personal information of the user registered in each service, It relates to a personal information security device and method for.

Recently, as the number of computers increased and it became one person, one PC, various industries related to it were developed together. Among them, the Internet related field could be selected.

In other words, the development of various data dedicated line services for PC communication, which was conventionally made only through general telephone lines, enables high-speed data services to be performed at a lower cost, and the development of data compression and transmission technologies such as audio and video Large amounts of data can now be easily transferred.

As a result, not only the information service but also various services that were performed only on-line can be performed on-line. In recent years, various Internet companies that use this technology to build a homepage on the Internet and use the advertising fee posted therein as a source of income Have also been created, creating new added value.

However, in the past, advertising fees, the main source of income for Internet companies, were calculated based on the hit rate of the homepage. In order to further enhance the effectiveness of advertising, by creating a customer database by registering users as members and receiving various personal information at the time of membership registration, it has been changed to a method of appropriately tailoring advertisements according to target customers.

Therefore, instead of using the above services free of charge, users must enter their personal information at the time of membership registration, and later they can continue to use the service by logging in with the ID and password set at the time of registration.

However, as the Internet services become more diverse, there are users who subscribe to a few to many dozens of services, and the problem of personal information leakage is seriously raised.

At this time, there is an indirect process of hacking a server of a service company by a hacker regardless of a user's intention, and a direct process of leaking an ID and a password by a user's mistake.

In this case, there is no special alternative for the user when the user information is hacked by an indirect process, but the information leaked by the direct process can be prevented only by managing the ID and password well. .

However, most Internet service users know the ID and password of a service provider by setting their ID and password using simple numbers and alphabets that they can easily remember, and by entering similar IDs and passwords at various service providers. If you do, you can log in to other services, which increases your chances of hacking.

Therefore, the present invention was created in order to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and the information on the service and the login information (ID, password, etc.) for the service at the time of membership registration of each Internet service to be recorded in the additional device, If the user only knows the password of the additional device, the user can use the different ID and password for each service by retrieving the login information from the additional device at the time of login of the service later. It is an object of the present invention to provide a personal information security device and a method for protecting personal information of a user by preventing others from withdrawing this information by a password set in the additional device itself even if the device is lost.

10: Internet server 20: user terminal device

30: additional device

The present invention for achieving the above object, the Internet server for providing various online services through the Internet; A user terminal device connected to the Internet server through the Internet to perform various data transmission operations; And an additional device connected directly or indirectly to the user terminal device or the Internet server to record or withdraw the login information of the online service.

Hereinafter, an embodiment according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of a system to which the present invention is applied, and as shown therein, an internet server 10 for providing various online services through the Internet; A user terminal device 20 connected to the Internet server 10 through the Internet to perform various data transmission operations; It is connected to the user terminal device 20 or the Internet server 10 directly or indirectly comprises an additional device 30 for recording or withdrawing the login information of the online service.

In this case, the additional device 30 is directly connected to the user terminal device 20 through a serial port, a parallel port, or a USB port, such as an MP3-player or an electronic notebook, which is widely used recently, or a mobile phone base station such as a mobile phone ( It may be directly connected to the Internet server 10 through the (not shown), characterized in that the device is designed to be easily portable for purposes other than the purpose of recording the login information.

Of course, the mobile phone may also be directly connected to the user terminal device 20 through a dedicated data transmission line. If direct connection is not possible, the mobile phone displays login-related information through the display window of the device itself, and the user directly logs in information ( ID, password, etc.) can be entered.

At this time, in order to display the information stored in the device or to withdraw the information through the user terminal device 20, the user must remember the password set in the device itself.

In addition, the login information recorded in the additional device 30 stores a connection site name or IP address, an access date, a service company name, an ID, a password, and the like, as shown in FIG. ), So that it can be used as a basis for tracking down the cause of future password leaks.

Of course, the history includes both the case where the additional device 30 and the Internet server 10 are directly connected and automatically withdrawn, and when the automatic withdrawal is impossible and input by the user.

Next, the user terminal device 20 performs a conversion function and an intermediate protection device for connecting the Internet server 10 and the additional device 30, and there may be a request for input of login information from the Internet server 10. At this time, the additional device 30 and the Internet server 10 are directly connected by receiving the password of the corresponding device in which the information is recorded from the user to directly access the information from the Internet server 10.

At this time, if the number of times of access is monitored and the user tries to access the information more than the specified number of times (for example, two times), the user is asked for a password of the additional device 30, and the user continuously accesses the password from the additional device 30 by the hacking program. It protects data by not being able to withdraw information.

That is, after the first information is accessed, the connection between the Internet server 10 and the additional device 30 is disconnected.

In addition, when a password request of the additional device 30 is requested from the user, the additional device 30 is connected with the port information connected thereto as shown in FIG. 2A.

That is, since the user terminal device 20 does not know where the login information is recorded, when the user selects it, the user terminal device 20 operates the driver of the device connected to the port, and only then starts control of the device.

Of course, the port information to which the additional device 30 is connected may be configured by adding a port selection box to the login information input box of the homepage as shown in FIG. 2B according to a service company.

Then, the login information recording process according to the membership will be described in more detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 5.

First, the user accesses the website that he / she wants to use the service, inputs user information, ID and password in the member registration field, and clicks the 'member registration' button.

Accordingly, the Internet server 10 lists and displays the information input by the user, and the user checks whether the information input by the user is correct and clicks the 'OK' button to output a 'member registration complete' message.

Of course, in this case as well, as shown in FIG. 3, the login information output direction check box is added to the message to transmit the information to the corresponding additional device 30, or the user terminal device 20 detects this and sends the information to the additional device ( When the password of 30) is requested, the server 10 and the additional device 30 are connected together by receiving information on the connection port.

As such, when information is transmitted after the two devices 10 and 30 are connected, the user terminal device 20 disconnects the connection between the Internet server 10 and the additional device 30.

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG. 6, the login process in the case of logging in to the website registered as a member later is as follows.

First, when the user visits the website, the website requests 'login', and if the user knows the login information, the user inputs directly, but if the user does not know, the additional terminal 30 connected to the user terminal apparatus 20 Select the port and click the 'Login' button.

In the case of a website without the port selection box, the user terminal device 20 can receive the information.

As such, when there is a request for inputting login information on the corresponding website, the user terminal device 20 displays a password input window of the additional device 30 connected to the corresponding port and receives a password from the user.

Accordingly, the user terminal device 20 inputs the password to the corresponding device so that the Internet server 10 can connect to the corresponding device so that the access is possible, and the number of accesses is monitored to be a limited number.

Next, when the Internet server 10 accesses the additional device 30 to retrieve information, the Internet server 10 disconnects the two devices.

As described above, in the personal information security apparatus and method of the present invention, information on the service and login information (ID, password, etc.) thereof are recorded on the additional device at the time of membership registration of each Internet service. If only the password of the device is known, the login information can be retrieved from the additional device at the time of login of the service, so that a different ID and password can be used for each service, even if the additional device for which the login information is recorded is lost. This information cannot be retrieved without knowing the password set in the additional device itself, thereby protecting the personal information of the user.
